The use of solar photovoltaic power is also increasing, and in the event of extended power cuts, it can provide power to the affected communities, particularly during the response and recovery periods. However, solar installations are also vulnerable to typhoon-force winds and can suffer extensive damages.
3.4.1. Solar panel energy generation and equipment energy requirement The communities which are devasted by the typhoon experience vast damage to infrastructure and power outages which can go on from a few days to a month.
A coupled FSI and BES framework is proposed to evaluate the structural and energy performance of a building-integrated solar panel system under typhoon strength wind conditions. As shown in Fig. 2, the FSI approach utilises a combination of CFD and FEA tools to model the structural resilience of the building and the PV panel.
The highest energy generation was observed for the photovoltaic system installed at a 26.5° roof pitch but would not be able to power the household in the event of a stronger typhoon with a sustained wind speed of 61 m/s.
The FSI simulation was carried out for a typical low-rise building design with solar panels subjected to typhoon-strength approach winds. Different configurations were simulated in BES to predict the building energy demand and optimise the solar photovoltaic energy generation.
Panels that fail in the windward areas are only possible if the wind is flowing in the 0° direction. It is recommended that the building avoid being situated in oblique positions (45 deg.) if the typhoon wind flow path is known. Otherwise, the panels should consider being mounted on the windward areas of the roof. Fig. 14.
